Abstract
The East African highlands comprise a system of high plateaux, mountain valleys and lakes, located between 2°N and 10°S extending over six countries — Burundi, Kenya, Rwanda, Tanzania, Uganda and the Eastern province of Zaire. The Rift Valley fault system is the principal geological feature of the highlands. See Fig. 17.1.
